This historical map image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Texas Mexico Disputed Border 1836 to 1848.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.

Summary edit

English: The Republic of the Rio Grande claimed the above areas, which are the previous boundaries for the Mexican states of w:Coahuila and w:Tamaulipas. The Republic of Texas claimed its southern border was the Río Grande, people living immediately north of the Río Grande still thought of themselves as Mexicans. In the minds of those at the Constitutional Convention near Laredo, the northern border of Tamaulipas was with the w:Nueces River and the northern border of Coahuila was with the upper w:Medina River. This area of land south to the Río Grande was already in dispute of ownership between the Republic of Texas and México. And as of January 1840, the Republic of the Río Grande was laying a third claim to the area.
